The AdventHealth Career Experience is a dynamic, hands-on initiative designed to inspire and inform individuals exploring careers in health care. This immersive exhibit offers a unique opportunity to engage with the wide spectrum of roles available across the health care continuum—spanning both clinical and non-clinical professions. Through a blend of interactive simulations, real-world scenarios, and gamified learning modules, participants gain firsthand insight into the day-to-day responsibilities and impact of various health care careers.
Leveraging cutting-edge technologies such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), the experience brings to life the environments and challenges faced by health care professionals. Whether you're interested in nursing, imaging, administration, IT, or support services, the AdventHealth Career Experience provides a meaningful and memorable introduction to the possibilities within the industry. It’s more than just an exhibit—it’s a launchpad for future talent, designed to spark curiosity, build confidence, and foster a deeper understanding of the vital roles that keep our communities healthy and thriving.

History
The AdventHealth Career Experience was first debuted in August 2024 in Gillette, Wyoming, following a vision from AdventHealth’s CEO to create a dynamic way to engage K–12 students in exploring health care careers. The experience was designed to help students explore the wide world of health care in a way that feels real, exciting, and within reach. It’s an interactive, hands-on experience built for K–12 students—one that opens their eyes to both clinical and non-clinical careers they might not have known existed.
Since its creation, the AdventHealth Career Experience has inspired thousands of students, bringing career exploration to life across schools, hospitals, and community events. The AdventHealth Career Experience continues to grow, an opportunity for students to imagine themselves in careers that serve others—and to take the first step toward a future they may not have considered before.
